This is dead WRONG. Ricardo Clark was out of line and punished severely for his misconduct. I'm a fan of Ricardo Clark but what he did in this situation was out of character for him but none the less out of line. Here are a few examples of violence in other sports and there are many others. I've been watching American sports for 50 years and these examples are like a few grains of sand on a huge beach. Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-9044837445807888591 http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7775386313678049667 Soccer is the most popular sport in the World. One-quarter of the World's population watched the 2006 Men's World Cup final. Patriotic American's support U.S. Soccer and the U.S. National soccer teams. Ignorant and unpatriotic American's bash it. </p>
